Twilight: Purchasing New Moon

Saturday, March 20. The warmest day of the year so far. Ben and Maggie set out from their homes for one purpose: to locate New Moon on DVD and get out of the store with it while drawing as little attention to their quest as possible.

Ben: I possess New Moon.
Maggie: Me too! As of 20 minutes ago. I wish they didn't have the display in the front of the store.
Ben: I strolled by the display and grabbed a disc and then walked a few aisles over to read the features. I opted for the 2-disc special edition.
Maggie: I went back and forth between Best Buy and Barnes and Noble three times trying to decide which had the best price for which version.
Ben: There was a 3-disc version, but I thought: Let's maintain some dignity here.
Maggie: I tried to get an aisle with a female cashier to no avail.
Ben: I bought enough other things to make New Moon look like a spur-of-the-moment grab.
